Dreaming Behind the Wheel

I punched the clock and I was out the door
I was happy as hell the week was hard to endure
Overtime is killing me I hate these 60 hour weeks
I'll snap real fast, tolerance at it's peak

I'll just go home and relax, sit down kick up my feet
I'm really tired but at night I just can't sleep
Because ever since she left me I just can't sleep
So I hopped in my car and headed down the street

It's an hour drive home, all I can do is think of you
Because when I'm alone, all I do is think of you
My mind is in the zone, my eyes are shutting I don't want them to
Damn I should have known 'cause this isn't nothing new

So I get generous on the gas, start to go a little fast, I've gotta try to stay awake
Put the music real loud, can't fall into a cloud, I shouldn't drive in my current state

But I've done this before, it's hard but nothing more, I always make it to the destination
But now you're gone and times long, everything feels wrong, I hate the current situation

I fell asleep behind the wheel
You were all that I could feel
As my car went off the shoulder
I could have lived a lot older

I fell asleep behind the wheel
You were all that I could feel
The dream was so real
But now my thoughts are concealed

I wasn't drunk, I wasn't high
I was just trying to get by
I wasn't trying to make a killing
I was just trying to make a living

Sometimes we make some bad decisions
Sometimes it's not our fault
Sometimes we lose clear vision
When love comes to a halt

It's like I love you but I hate you
And I can't wait to erase you
Dreaming of the days when we first met
You were the best thing that happened to me yet

So I get generous on the gas, start to go a little fast, I've gotta try to stay awake
Put the music real loud, can't fall into a cloud, I shouldn't drive in my current state

But I've done this before, it's hard but nothing more, I always make it to the destination
But now you're gone and times long, everything feels wrong, I hate the current situation

I fell asleep behind the wheel
You were all that I could feel
As my car went off the shoulder
I could have lived a lot older

I fell asleep behind the wheel
You were all that I could feel
The dream was so real
But now my thoughts are concealed
